Stopped by Taco Bell Cantina recently to try their unique menu items. I love Taco Bell! And I really like the Cantina concept. I don't see why these new menu items couldn't be rolled out to all Taco Bells, save the alcohol.
It was interesting to see a bottle of Bacardi Rum sitting on the counter behind the cash register as I placed my order. I ordered a 6 pack of naked chicken tenders, a chicken cantina bowl, and a Mountain Dew. My food was ready in under a minute and it was hot and tasty. I started off with the chicken tenders. They were thin, looked like Doritos, and were very tasty, especially when dipped in the warm cheese sauce. For $1.99, this is a nice filler. My chicken bowl was fresh and tasty too. I really liked it. I added some Diablo sauce for heat. The bowl cost less than $5.00 and my entire lunch was under $9.00. That made me happy because when I dine out for lunch, I don't like to spend more than $10. My Mountain Dew was the perfect drink to wash down my yummy lunch.
I liked that they don't shoot the guacamole into the bowl with a gun. Instead, they spoon it in. This was done per the chef that invented the new dishes.
I will definitely be back!
